Human Emulation AI and Robots for AGI and Machine Sentience via Humanlike Embodiment and the Integrative Humanities

Studying the human organism allows AI and Robotics designers to draw inspiration from nature at many levels and in many regards, in principles and function, for engineering new materials, mechanisms, and algorithms, and efforts to create AI and robots as self-regulating artificial lifeforms. Here the presenter describes a novel embodied AI framework using a human-inspired AI cognitive system with robotic hardware embodiment, including naturalistic humanlike face, hands and arms, locomotion, and an extensive software suite including diverse AI algorithms, computer animation tools, and application authoring tools, for exploring humanlike cognition as a holistic, embodied phenomenon.
